A/N: Okay, I was extremely unsure on whether to post this. I know I'm terrible with commitment, but this idea has been stuck in my head for a while and I just had to get it written down. I'm so sorry if I annoy you all with my lack of commitment, but you've just got to be patient and I will get round to finishing How to bake a souffle and a baby someday, I promise. Anyway, you can have this for now, please don't kill me D: *Gives everyone chocolate for being nice*

Beep. Beep. Beep.

The sound echoed around the walls of the TARDIS, gradually getting louder.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

The Doctor blinked open his eyes, rubbing them in an attempt to wake up. He didn't remember falling asleep, let alone falling asleep in Clara's room. Wait… Clara's room?! He immediately sprang off the bed, relieved when he found out they were both still fully clothed. Standing up, he rubbed his head as he slowly tried to make sense of the situation. Why was he in Clara's room? The girl in question was still sleeping soundly on his bed, completely oblivious to the very stressed out Time Lord a few meters away. The Doctor scratched his head; he remembered working in the control room, messing about with the functions of the TARDIS when he heard her scream. She'd been doing a lot of screaming at night since they'd returned from Trenzalore. Going into his Time Stream had taken a toll on them both, but she was more affected than him. He'd gone to her side and held her close to his chest, stroking her hair and calming her down. She finally fell back asleep and normally the Doctor would just put her down and leave, but he must have been really tired as he's fallen asleep with her.

BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.

The beeping noise had gotten substantially louder whilst the Doctor was thinking and it immediately broke him from his thoughts. Frowning he checked his watch, which read 5 a.m. What was the TARDIS doing making noises this early? He turned to face the bed when he heard Clara stir.

"Doctor, what's that noise?" She mumbled, still half asleep.

"I don't know," He replied softly, sticking his head out from behind Clara's door, "And I hate not knowing."

"Well make it shut up," Shuffling over, Clara stuck her head in between her pillows to block out the sound, "I want to get back to sleep."

The Doctor headed towards the Control room and only when he made it inside did he realise what the noise was.

"It's a distress signal!" He shouted, furiously hammering buttons to figure out where the signal was coming from. Grabbing the screen, his eyes widened when he realised where it was from. The signal was coming from a planet he'd been to before, a planet with a very close friend. Pulling a lever, he sent the TARDIS whirring to its destination, causing a very grumpy Clara to come stumbling into the room.

"Doctor what the hell are you doing?!" She snapped, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes, "I told you to shut the noise up, not send us somewhere at five in the morning!"

The Doctor stumbled over to her, grabbing her by the shoulders, "Clara, I don't care how early it is, it's very important that we go where we're going now, okay?" Clara just replied with a confused, but still grumpy, look. "Now I suggest you go get dressed, it could get a little exciting when we land."

Clara shrugged, slowly making her way back to her room to dress. She felt the TARDIS land when she entered her room and so quickly brushed her hair, throwing on an outfit before reappearing in the TARDIS control room. The Doctor was stood by the door, anxiously waiting to get out. He looked like a puppy that needed to use the bathroom outside desperately. Clara chuckled and the Doctor raised an eyebrow. She shook her head, walking to his side and taking his hand, which caused him to blush immensely.

"So, Doctor, what's so important that makes you want to go on an adventure so very early in the morning?"

"I got a distress signal," He replied, "From a very close friend. She said she's in serious trouble and needs my help."

"Oh, a she is it?" Clara smirked, raising an eyebrow, "Are you sure you weren't more than 'close friends'?"

The Doctor's eyes grew wide and he opened and closed his mouth like a fish. "I… What… No! Why would you even say that Clara, shut up!"

Clara laughed out loud as his face reddened and he straightened his bow tie, completely flustered. She hadn't been serious, but she did love teasing him. She also loved seeing how cute he looked all red-faced, but she wouldn't admit that part.

"Let's just go…" He grumbled, making his way out of the TARDIS doors, Clara following close behind with their hands intertwined.

When they stepped out, Clara's mouth dropped to the floor. They had landed in the front area of what seemed like a lab, the TARDIS parked just beside a potted plant by one of the windows. The room was large and in a semi-circle shape, potted plants lining the walls, which weren't really walls at all as they were made completely out of glass. The floor was marble and was covered here and there by very expensive looking red carpets, one of which led from the front door to what looked like a reception desk. Behind that a long corridor split off into smaller corridors that led deeper into the lab. Looking out of the windows, Clara could see the lab was surrounded by a forest, with only a short ring of grass around the actual facility before the trees swallowed up the rest of the ground.

"Doctor, we're not on earth, are we?" Clara asked, still looking around. The building and the foliage outside didn't look alien, and the few people that Clara had seen walk past looked completely human, although looks could be deceiving, especially when travelling with the Doctor.

"No," He replied, walking forward to the desk near the centre of the room, "Although the planet we are on is almost identical, it's amazing isn't it? Oh, and yes, the people are human."

Clara only nodded as the Doctor stopped at the desk, exchanging a few words with the woman before heading down to sit in some chairs by the huge windows. Clara sat in one across from him, frowning.

"You said you'd been here before, didn't you?" He nodded, and she continued, "So… When did you come here and what did you do?"

He opened his mouth, about to explain, when a woman's voice cut him off.

"Doctor! It's good to see you again." Clara turned around to look at the new arrival. She was quite tall and had straight blonde hair that stopped just below her shoulders. Her eyes were a dark blue, almost black and she wore a long white lab coat, like most of the other people here.

"Who are you?" Clara asked as the Doctor stood up from his chair, walking over to the woman and placing an arm around her shoulders.

"Clara, meet Dr. Tivon. She's the reason that we're here."
